The Breadwinner ft. Dancing to Conclusions & Conner Walsh Lyrics

You worked the field from dawn till dusk The life you led was simple and rough

A peasant's life with little to boast But deep inside he felt a different pulse

He's a hero in the making With a heart that's strong

And a spirit unshaken He'll rise above his humble station

He's no peasant now But a legend in the making

The kingdom was in peril And the people they all cried

The king was powerless The enemy was nigh

They needed a savior Someone who would fight

But no one dared To do what was right

He's a hero in the making With a heart that's strong

And a spirit unshaken He'll rise above his humble station

He's no peasant now But a legend in the making

Well, many before him chose to take up the sword

Our hero knew he didn't want the war

He strode forward with a flag in his hand

Whiter than the snow He strode across the land

He said, we do not want to fight you all

And that is why I have come And that is why I call for you to

Lay down your arms and be with me as friends

And from his backpack out he took a loaf of sourdough bread

And the people cheered and they knew that time was near

To put down their swords and spears

And instead just drink some beer

So they all went down to the local pub

And they ate some grub

And it was time for the hero to return to his bakery

He left the fields with hands so shakery

And he strode into the night

Knowing he had done the thing that was right

He's a hero in the making With a heart that's strong

And a spirit unshaken He'll rise above his humble station

Oh, a peasant now, but a legend in the baking

A peasant now, but a legend in bread making
